I know he's "off limits" so why does he stare at me?

A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

So I like this guy...but he has a girlfriend so I know he is off limits and would never do anything to break them up.

But I know I look at him a lot and sometimes our eyes meet so I look away....But I catch him just staring at me sometimes and he doesn't look away when I look at him. (he looks away when I look up sometimes, so this doesn't happen all the time)

I like him but sometimes this just makes me uncomfortable. (maybe because I know he has a gf)

But he offered me the seat beside him at dinner today so I took it and sat down and started talking to my friends who was across from me...

Then I just felt weird and so I turned to look at him and I realized he had been staring at me.

So our eyes met and well we talked for a bit then I went back to talking to my friends...because well I don't want to put all my attention on him and end of flirting, because I cant do that...he has a gf!

So why does he stare at me when he has a gf?

And I guess it just makes me uncomfortable because he has a gf or because sometimes he doesn't break the stare until after I do...?

I just met him on the 19th of Aug. and we haven't talked much before now, here this past week is when we started talking a lot. I've noticed hes very quiet until you get him talking and then he just goes on and on.

So..?

sometimes guys don't know what they want. Even though they have a girlfriend they don't care. If he is persuing you that means he doesn't have good morals, take it from me! get out of that situation now!! before something happens that you will regret the rest of your life like i do.

Sounds like this guy has a wandering eye, but you're also attracted to him, its hard to keep your feelings in check.

It sucks, but I have been there before, I would watch out for him he sounds like he could be a player.

This is verified as being by the original poster of the question

Yeah I do feel guilty for liking him because he already has a gf.

I would love to get to know him more but again that "guilty because he has a gf" feeling is there...and I know I flirt sometimes...like the other day we were talking and I started to flirt so I stopped myself and told him I had to go.

But then there is the fact that hi and his gf are very private like they do not show their going out...they hardly sit together or talk so I thought he was single till last weekend!

Hes a very quiet guy doesn't talk very much and when he does I have to ask him "what?" because of how quiet he is...but were normally pretty close when we have major convos (which he talks a lot then).

He was making fun of me earlier because he said something and it took me awhile to get it..and then I was like "ohhh."

But if Im in the pc lab he will sometimes come in and sit at the pc beside me...also he was trying to talk to me the other day and another of our friends kept interrupting us (trying to talk to him) and he seemed to be getting very annoyed with the guy (but didn't say anything).

And at supper today I noticed his chair was very close mine compared to our friend on his other side...but idk if that means anything.

He smiles and laughs at me/things I say a lot.

But other than that I just catch him staring at me in class sometimes, and when he does it his facial expressions are kind of stoic so maybe thats why it makes me uncomfortable but I dont know...I try looking else where around the class instead.

But I caught him watching me when I went up to get my dinner today (he was in another line)...when I finally looked at hi he turned around.

so yeah...IDK

Sounds like you feel guilty, for liking this guy. Don't, you have done nothing wrong,yet. I think he is feeling you out, maybe he senses the attraction too, or mabe he like the attention your providing him it's too hard to tell. If it were me I would watch his body language, see what it says.. If you like the guy, girl friend or not, start asking qustions find out more about him.. But if your gut feeling says _ stop_ then do just that he may be a charmer and deciever...
